Recurring Tasks
Being able to set recurring tasks on a month to month basis would be ideal. You can use a work around by creating meetings, but it would be more helpful to have tasks that your entire team can tick off, yet will recur.

Feature ID: 82028

I'm a little frustrated as the original Uservoice for the Planner team is going unanswered and still gaining new votes daily.
We gave up over there and started posting here, but it's not reaching critical mass to get noticed.This request should 11'000 votes higher making it hit the first page and be noticed. Can everyone make sure they hit the vote button here. I won't post the other link as the votes need to be here.
Moderators - please note that the planner team has abandoned its own uservoice after stating they have begun working. I believe communication is required to the 11,600 people requesting this feature.

For a company that did $44bn in net profit last year, you'd think recurring tasks would already be baked into their new signature product.

How is this not available? Been requested - and promised - by Microsoft since 2018.

The single biggest barrier to my ability to convert to Planner.

This is such a basic piece of functionality; I can't believe that it still isn't available.

A possibility to make tasks recurring would be great - even in the most innovative projects there are tasks that appear every month/every week. I really miss this possibility!

Most other software does this which is why I only use teams if forced to. such a shame.

Agreed with the confusion others have noted regarding why recurring tasks exist in To Do but are not in Tasks after the merge with Planner. It's hard to advocate for Teams amongst my work team when it's missing basic features like this.

I don't understand why it works in the microsoft to do app but not in the tasks app in microsoft teams. it is a basic function in a to do manager.

Plus another 11,609 - from this ignored planner uservoice.
(This was planned in 2019 !)

Recurring tasks is a BASIC task/to do function. This should have been one of the fundamental activities rather than having to create a new task again, and again, and again, and again.

This is desperately needed. PLEASE add this function.

The inability to schedule recurring tasks is the major reason our organization has not moved all activity into Teams. We operate on checklists for just about everything. In fact, we started using Planner first. Our IT person showed us Teams and the option to use Tasks by Planner. Really missing the recurring task feature though.

The FREE https://clickup.com/features allows recurring tasks and MUCH more for task mgmt.
A pity that Teams is feature poor in this regard. Should also alow to create task TEMPLATES (shareable among teams or even among channels)... -

Recurring task lists would act as checklists (aka workflows) for jobs that have to be done each day (or week, whatever). Essentially the user could start up and follow a new checklist each time they have to run a process for instance. I have used SharePoint to mimic this. But a proper task list would be useful.

It doesn't make sense to have to generate a Flow to create a recurring task and repeat this every time for several other items. It's a common and simple feature that was overlooked; I'm surprised this isn't incorporated for enterprise use.
